Definitions

  • a hydraulically operable first friction clutch is provided for connecting and separating the first transmission with the rear-wheel driving system.
  • a hydraulically double-acting first piston is provided to act for engagement and disengagement of the first friction clutch.
  • the first piston is provided at one side thereof with a first fluid chamber for the clutch-engaging action thereof and at the other side thereof with a second fluid chamber with a second fluid chamber for the clutch-disengaging action thereof.
  • a biasing member for biasing the first friction clutch to engage is disposed in the first chamber.
  • the directional control valve is changed from the second position to the first position, thereby changing the driving mode into F4WD.
  • the directional control valve is changed from the first position to the third position, thereby changing the driving mode into S4WD.
  • the first friction clutch engages for F4WD by the resultant of hydraulic pressure force and the biasing force of the biasing member together generated in the first chamber, so that the capacity of the first friction clutch can be reduced and the construction of the device including the first friction clutch can be compacted so as to reduce the space for disposing it.
  • front-wheel driving output shaft 40 forms in the rear half portion thereof rotary joints which are respectively open to oil bores 48, 49 and 55.
  • a directional control valve 63 is disposed on the upper portion of hydraulic lifting casing 15a and is connected with oil conduits 60, 61 and 62 which are connected to the respective rotary joints, so that oil conduits 60, 61 and 62 are communicated with oil bores 48, 49 and 55 respectively.
  • On hydraulic lifting casing 15a is also disposed a hydraulic pump 65 in connection with directional control valve 63 in front thereof through discharge oil conduit 64.
  • hydraulic pump 65 is driven by power transmitted through the gear train from PTO transmission shaft 21.
  • Reference numeral 66 shown in Fig. 6 designates as an electromagnetic valve for acting PTO clutch 22.
  • Discharge oil conduit 64 from hydraulic pump 63 branches two ways consisting of one connected to directional control valve 63 and the other connected to an oil supplying circuit for a PTO driving unit.
  • the pressure of oil led into directional control valve 63 through discharge oil conduit 64 is limited by a relief valve 67 and is selectively led into one of oil conduits 60, 61 and 62 connected to respective discharge ports of directional control valve 63.
  • the engagement and disengagement of first and second friction clutches 16 and 17 are controlled by switching of directional control valve 63, thereby selecting one of three driving modes that are 2WD, F4WD and S4WD.
  • first solenoid 63a is energized so as to shift directional control valve 63 to a second position II shown in Fig. 7, so that pressure oil discharged from hydraulic pump 65 is supplied into second chamber C2 of first friction clutch 16 through oil conduit 60 and oil bore 48, so as to make first piston 46 slide rightward when viewed in Fig. 3, thereby releasing the pressure between friction plates 43 and 44.
  • gear 42 is unconnected from front-wheel driving output shaft 40, whereby only rear wheels 14 are driven.
  • switch 72 makes the circuit so as to energize second solenoid 63b, thereby shifting directional control valve 63 to third position II.
  • pressure oil from hydraulic pump 65 flows through oil conduit 62 and is divided into oil bore 55 and into oil bore 48 through check valve 76.
  • Pressure oil from oil bore 48 is supplied into second chamber C2 of first friction clutch 16, so as to make first piston 46 slide, thereby releasing the pressure between friction plates 43 and 44.
  • pressure oil from oil bore 55 is supplied into third chamber C3 of second friction clutch 17, so as to make second piston 53 slide rightward when viewed in Fig. 3, thereby pressing friction plates 51 and 52.
  • gear 50 is connected with front-wheel driving output shaft 40 so that the vehicle travels in S4WD mode, or front wheels 12 is driven faster than rear wheels 14.
